BS FF Is that project, that being said it remains to be seen if anything will come of it, PA as always is late to the game which is honestly shocking when you see the performance of the Jevalin in Ukraine.
 
Modern day Battle Tanks that combine speed, protection, and firepower are still needed to Hold ground , can sprint rapidly across the battlefield, shrugging off hits, engaging enemy forces with cannons and machine guns, and driving deep behind enemy lines.

Yet as powerful as they are, with right hardware & tanks can be stopped; even unarmored ground troops armed with the right weapons can kill the largest and best protected tanks dead.

Tanks are designed to kill enemy tanks - It was reported in Sep 2023 that the US-made M1 Abrams tank is at last in Ukraine, and while it has its limitations, it's more than just another piece of Western weaponry. It's heavy-duty, combat-proven armor that was built with a very specific mission in mind:
killing Russian tanks.

Improvements in antitank weapons and techniques to suppress armour such as "Top Attack Mode" are leading to Armor designs better able to withstand them and vice versa, with pendulum swings marking the temporary advantage of one or the other.

In recent years, the balance rested firmly on the side of well-trained infantry with both advanced guided missiles and unguided rockets.

The greatest of these capabilities are fire-and-forget, guided, top-attack missiles—the premier model being the American-made Javelin.

This weapon allows a single soldier to target and destroy even the most heavily armored main battle tank with an almost guaranteed kill rate, at great range and with minimal risk.

Most critical and effective element in today's warfare against armored columns are loitering munitions.

On an advancing columns, fire a salvo of loitering munitions and it will take down dozens of armored units in one salvo. Tanks APS may be able to take down 1 to 3 systems but these cheap loitering munitions if used 3 to 5 per 1 tank, can wreak havoc on any advancing armored column without the need to directly confront the enemy. Russia-Ukraine war for the past year has been running on loitering munitions and standoff missiles mostly.

yeah but bsff isnt going to do a ton for the balance. strapping a seeker to a hj8 will not make a massive difference, lipstick on a pig etc
 
Recalling Pakistan had procured thousands of Red Arrows a few years ago. Are they not sufficient to tackle Indian Armada?

Which Red arrows are talking about, other RA-8 we don't have any RA in service.

Is there any indication that the Bs FF is just HJ-8 with a seeker?
 
What exactly are we looking at here?
Kestrel Defense is a Chinese technology company specializing in the research and development of intelligent military equipment. (Export-oriented enterprises. The PLA has not purchased their equipment. However, some Chinese special police units and security companies frequently purchase their equipment.)

This is their military exoskeleton system and Military Augmented Reality System (MARS).
This is their robot dog's weapon. Here, it's just mounted on the exoskeleton system.
